Mozart's Attic July 26th 10:00 PM

Jean Sibelius
NPR

Jean Sibelius was Finland's hero-composer. They even put his picture on the currency.

Originally from central Massachusetts, Jay has called the Space Coast home for more than 30 years. He began his association with WFIT in the late '90s as a dumpster diver for office furniture in response to a broadcast plea for a new chair from a frustrated disc jockey. (WFIT has come a long way since.)
